Cheap Flights To Cork

Situated along the south-west coast of Ireland, the stunning region of Cork is a must-see destination, the third largest city in Ireland and frequented by visitors from around the world. The area was founded by the Bishop of Cork, known as the Finbar, in the 6th Century, although the modern region was not established until 915 A.D, when the Vikings settled there and established trading links and a community. By the 12th century, however, Anglo-Norman settlers invaded the area and during the Medieval period, the majority of the population was eradicated by the Bubonic Plague, often referred to as the 'Black Death'.

Today, this stunning city boasts an array of historical sites and places of interest, fine restaurants and eateries, pristine beaches flanked by majestic scenery and was voted the European Capital of Culture in 2005. Visit in June when the Cork Harbour Festival occurs to experience a nine-day extravaganza in celebration of the region's maritime heritage, the event is hosted at the harbour, which is the second largest in the world. The event features a selection of water-sports and competitions, live performances and workshops.
